Focus on the Masters (FOTM) is a non-profit art appreciation program that documents, preserves and presents the works and lives of accomplished contemporary artists. We emphasize the importance of the arts to a healthy society. Our archive includes oral histories, video taped interviews, photographic portraits and examples of the artists’ work. We incorporate our research into community outreach projects including our cross-curricular in-school program, Learning To See and our annual Ventura Studio Artists Tour. We also offer art classes and workshops for people of all ages in our Creative Center. FOTM is the only biographical resource project of its kind in the country. more >>
